Academy of Legends (Working title.)

Legends are not born, they are made.

Hello student. I know the shock of all this might be a bit of a surprise but we have temporarily hacked your device. Before you throw this away there is a very good reason we have taken it over. For the first time in many years magic is returning to the world. Now I know in this age of smart phones and computers you think this is ramblings of the mad and paranoid. Well it's not. You've felt it, powers, perhaps new found hobbies, unnatural skills at things you never knew you understood. You are descended of a legend of old, a mage, a king, perhaps a thief.

Whatever the case may be we have gathered teachers for you, prepared a school, and even made travel arrangements for you. If you choose to join us we reveal yours powers, and all the magic you could ever need. Power and fame would be yours once the training is complete, you would return to the world a herald of what they can learn and become.

Of course if you refuse we will be forced to take... Measures against you revealing this information. Below this message you'll find a plane ticket, passport, and thousand dollars or your regional equivalent in a private account in your name. Get to New York city's Grand Central station, tell them you need a ticket to the deep end.

------------------

Hello and thank you for the interest! My idea here is to bring major historical figures, some fictional are okay. (Example, Van Helsing.) Please ask before using fictional characters. Perhaps a young girl from Germany who carries the blood of Nicholas Flamel or a young French man with King Arthur's grace and charm. These are your characters to create and build, skills of their legendary ancestor will be awakening as they learn from dragons in a hidden academy deep under the ocean to control the skills they posses and protect humanity from the other creatures that now threaten to awaken and cause chaos.

Arthal stopped new the base of the mountains as he listened for the dragon he pulled out the old map and the stone as he took shelter under a tree. Setting the map out on a rock he poured over it attempting to determine the easiest path in to the mountains after the dragon. "That dragon, it scared the Heartless meaning it's either very powerful and doesn't like them or it's commanding them. If's commanding them it's got to have the a piece of darkness in it or in it's lair, failing that it might know something about where the Heartless are coming from, more Heartless more darkness. More Darkness better chance of finding the peace and helping this place." Arthal said as he held the stone, still cold it would warm as they near pulsing and finally tug itself towards the piece if close enough.

The Elf looked up towards the tall mountains and the trails on the map. "Looks like most of the trail they used to use are gone, I can see one running deep in to the mountains but I'd prefer if we had a guide." He looked back down towards the valley below them, the it almost looked peaceful from this far away. "So now we have to choose, go down into a village that could be full of Heartless or climb up into the mountains blindly hoping to find the dragon who might even know were coming." Scratching his head a moment he sighed. "I think we'd be better off going down at least trying to learn about the area before we go chasing dragons." He had to admit the creature fascinated him, he would love to draw it and perhaps collect a souvenir.

"If any of you want to go check out the path or see if you can find a way up feel free to head that way. Just don't leave us behind, it's no good if you find the shard by yourself only the orb can contain it without the shards power taker over the individual or killing them, maybe worse. Finished the Elven guardians as he slowly started down into the valley after packing the map and stone back into his bag. "Search the valley for anything or anyone, maps would be useful, even shiny object perhaps to draw the dragon away while we search his lair? I won't order you to do anything just stay safe, we meet back in half an hour see what we've learned if your not their we come looking for you." Finished the Elf as broke off a piece of a try throwing it on the grass and slid down the grass slope that lead down into the valley, easier going down than going up.

Sorus sighed as he went over the reports again. "So we are now at war, Resistance joins the Republic and we now have to fight with barely any intel on what were up against." The Admiral groaned, his ship buzzed having gone from skeleton crew to full staff and troop complement he had plenty of requests coming in. He shoved the tablet away and began going over things, first he was waiting for his fleet to arrive in sector. Then he had to wait for intelligence on the next Imperial convoy. Lastly he had to log reports every three hours by Admiral Iblis's request.

X-wings practiced formations outside the ship as they continued to train pilots. The's holonet connection was rather annoying since it meant that they could receive signals from command quickly it was useful for co-coordinating things. However between all his commanders needing reports and the paper work out new crew he felt like more like a desk jockey than a captain. He'd assigned most of it to Commander Thara to take care of only typing what he had to, he slipped out and grabbed his paints. Heading down to the observation deck he began to paint the stars before them, the view out of the window.

He planned to wait each ship of his fleet as they arrived putting the fighter pickets and such around them. This painting would one day hang on Coruscant, perhaps even be stolen by art thieves to be sol to some rich king or warlord. People would want the painting because of what it meant, it would stand for Phoenix fleet striking at the New Order and proving that they could defeat anything that stood against the Republic. This painting would show the ships that formed the fleet that struck back against this deplorable New Order and all it stood for.

Sorus Faihe,

Admiral

Admiral Name: Sorus Faihe

Race: Miraluka

Home world: Alpheridies

Appearance: Short hair, dyed blueish green purple at ends. Normally in Republic uniform or combat armor, spray painted custom colors.

Training: Attending the New Republic Fleet Academy from age 16, he graduated top of his class however with several notices of Insubordination as well.

Notable battles: While not official he has been responsible for several of the plans that have helped get Republic and Resistance intelligence resources they need.

Bio: Unconventional, is about the kindest thing you can say about this Line-Admiral. An artist and Republic PR nightmare he encourages custom painting of Republic fighters, working with the Resistance, and publicly mocks the old Imperial government. However Ackbar, Leia, and Garm feel he is exactly the right kind of man to lead a fleet like this, as he is just as unorthodox as many of the great Rebellion captains. Plus his artistic streak will give his attacks a flair most Republic vessels lack.

Formerly he severed as Crix Madine's captain for the border fleets, however Crix was recalled to the Hosnian system to relay reports to Senate about Starkiller base. He lost his life their along with the most of the fleet, his command ship however, one two remaining Star defender Viscount cruisers remained. As Crix's right hand man and Crix being the man who wrote the book on how to fight the Empire, Sorus was naturally chosen.

Kingdom Hearts: The Keyblade War.

Stepping into the land of dragons Arthal gave a whistle, the sky was breathtaking he could have sworn the mountains in the distance of the palace turned in a dozens different colors. The sun setting behind them just so they lighting gave it an ominous or uplifting feel, depending on how you looked at it. Their were no mountains in Elf burrow and he had seen few before, yet here he could see these massive mound stretching up into the sky impressive as they were protective of the lands that stood behind them.

Arthal looked towards the palace, it was in ruins. Parts of it remained upright it looked as if it had been that way for many years now. Then he felt it, Heartless hordes of the little shadows rose up around them Arthal summoned his blades ready to defend the portal. "Well I didn't expect this much of a welcoming committee, guess they knew we were coming or they really like this place." The elf said, more and more forming rows upon rows yet none of them moved as if they waited for orders. He threw one of his blades at them, they didn't move simply dying to it more formed as if curiously looking at them.

They began to move away from them, they quickly left as a deafening roar filled the sky. Something that had long ago gone extinct on most worlds, something strong enough to give everyone and everything pause... A dragon. The beast roared echoed down from the mountain, the Heartless scatter like children caught stealing sweets. Arthal stared up as the beast flew swiftly between the mountains then disappeared behind a cloud in the distance. The Elf smiled, amazed such legendary creatures roamed the world still, he slowly headed towards the path leading towards the mountain. If dragons sacred the Heartless, follow the dragon.
